This isn't the end of the world and certainly isn't worth all the time you've put in to it. Just show the card as you board with Group 2. It's that simple. You are not "disrupting" the boarding process, you"re just boarding with your appropriate group.
The problem arose solely on any ticket (or tickets) you purchased prior to obtaining card. Any tickets purchased subsequently to getting the card will not generate the problem, so I'm not sure canceling the card is particularly useful if you do so when the problem you're annoyed with has gone away.
